As an alternative, a Select and Set value entry method is provided. This can
be used in combination with the value scrolling described above. To change the
selected digit in the numerical value, press both the ! and @ keys
simultaneously. The next digit to the left will be selected (flashing). If both keys
are pressed and held, the selected digit will scroll from right to left until one or
both keys are released.
Once a digit is selected, the arrow keys are used to increment or decrement
that digit to the desired number.
PROGRAMMING MODE EXIT
To exit the Programming Mode, press and hold the
D key (from anywhere in
the Programming Mode) or press the
P key with Pro NO displayed. This will
commit any stored parameter changes to memory and return the meter to the
Display Mode. If a parameter was just changed, the
P key must be pressed to
store the change before pressing the
D key. (If power loss occurs before
returning to the Display Mode, verify recent parameter changes.)
PROGRAMMING TIPS
It is recommended to start with the Input Parameters and proceed through
each module in sequence. If lost or confused while programming, press and hold
the
D key to exit programming mode and start over. It is recommended that
program settings be recorded as programming is performed. When programming
is complete lock out programming with a user input or lock-out code.
Factory Settings may be completely restored in the Factory Service
Operations module. This is useful when encountering programming problems.

COUNTER INPUT PARAMETERS (
COUNt
)
This section details the programming for Counter A and the Prescaler Output, Counter B, and Counter C. For maximum input frequency, the counters not
being used should be set to mode NONE. The Prescaler should be set to NO when it is not in use. When set to NONE or NO, the remaining related parameters are
not accessible. A Select Parameter List feature for Scale Factors and Count Load values is explained in the User Input programming section.
In the display depictions shown in this section, “x” represents A, B, or C for the counter being programmed.
